\nDefending KPL Top 8 champions Gor Mahia will start their KPL Top 8 campaign on Monday when they take on Ushuru. When these two teams last met, the match ended in a scoreless draw. Coach Ze Maria has expressed his intent to make up for that disappointing result.
\n\u201cIt is a good opportunity for us to win the match now that we have been gzziven a second chance. They gave us a lot of opposition in the league, but hopefully we can eliminate them,” said Marcelo<\/p>\n
Last year Gor Mahia opened their campaign with an emphatic 3-0 win over Muhoroni Youth at Moi stadium Kisumu. The goals were scored by Kagere, Olunga and Blackberry.<\/p>\n
Dangerman Jacque Tuyisenge has been pivotal in all the wins that Gor Mahia have recorded in 2016, scoring crucial goal after crucial goal. he is fit and available for the match. But coach Marcelo is best advised to rest Marcelo. Firstly there is a risk he might pick up another injury and miss the next league match which could spell doom. Secondly, Marcelo needs to sharpen the rest of the attackers who have been below par this season. Its an opportunity for Keli, Agwanda and Blackberry to prove their worth.<\/p>\n
Kickoff time is 2pm on Monday at Nyayo stadium<\/p>\n
